A young Peter Parker/Spider-Man (Tom Holland), who made his sensational debut in Captain America: Civil War, begins to navigate his newfound identity as the web-slinging super hero. Thrilled by his experience with the Avengers, Peter returns home, where he lives with his Aunt May (Marisa Tomei), under the watchful eye of his new mentor Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.). Peter tries to fall back into his normal daily routine – distracted by thoughts of proving himself to be more than just your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man – but when the Vulture (Michael Keaton) emerges as a new villain, everything that Peter holds most important will be threatened.

Great cast, great story and great villain which is a rarity these days especially in superhero movies. They got everything right about the character of Peter Parker/Spider-Man that The Amazing Spider-Man movies got wrong. Tom Holland is great as the lead struggling to be seen as worthy of being a hero and Michael Keaton is also really good as a bad guy you totally sympathize with but who is also terrifying and menacing (wait for that scene in the car, amazing) All the supporting cast is also on point. Iron Man is not in a huge amount of the film which was a worry I had based on the trailers. Must see for anyone disappointed in superhero movies in general or the last 3 Spider-Man movies released.

So epic! Thank you to Sony for playing nice with Marvel to make this movie, because Marvel knows Marvel best and it showed.

I was incredibly impressed with their ability to successfully make an origin story after introducing the character and without showing the power acquisition. They captured Peter becoming Spider-man, which is the more important part of the origin story than the spider bite. I kept seeing people latch onto the “Come on, Peter. Come on, Spider-man!” moment so I was on the lookout for it in the movie, and I gotta say…I get why people latched. Brilliant scene. Not just in Spider-man, but one of the best in the MCU.

Also, not only do I agree Holland nailed his performance, but Michael Keaton was perfect as Vulture. What an amazing villain, and I love that they didn’t hold back in writing him to be truly viscous while still giving him incredibly realistic origins. And unlike Amazing Spider-man 2 which tried to set up too many villains too quickly, Homecoming did it right by having one main villain while marginally setting up others in the background for later use.

I really hope we get more than 3 movies out of this Spider-man, because if this first movie is any indication, they’re on the completely right track to do it. Clearly being brought back into the Marvel fold was the best thing to happen to this franchise. This is not only my favorite Spider-man, but it immediately become one of my favorite MCU movies to date.

I am a huge fan of the original Sam Raimi produced Spider-man films (except for part 3) and I feel this one knocks them out of the park. Raimi did an excellent job of capturing Peter Parker, and the Amazing films did an excellent job of capturing Spider-man. This films does an amazing job of capturing both sides of the character. He is your friendly neighborhood Spider-man, looking at this larger world of the MCU with awe and striving to be the best person he can be. Both in his personal life and in his hero.

Michael Keaton is phenomenal and probably the best MCU villain to date. You sympathize with and understand his motivations, he's not out to rule or destroy the world. He's trying to succeed in a world that's changed so much by the arrival of super heroes, his only goal is to keep his family prosperous.

I am so glad Spider-man is in the MCU and I'm excited to see where the series goes and how Tom Holland grows the character to the heights he deserves as Marvel's flagship hero.

I loved the movie. Glad to finally see Spider-Man in the MCU, and especially as well done as it was here. Although the previews made it look like Robert Downey Jr was going to be in it more than he actually was.

Please note I am old enough to recall the spiderman shows from the 80's 90's and the Sam Raimi movies. Spider-Man 2 was probably one of the better superhero films of all time. This is probably however the best pure spiderman film to date. What boasts the authenticity of seeing s truly young peter parker in a realistic high school setting. It feels like you actually get to be immersed in the day to day life of the comic spiderman as opposed to an adults view of kids in high school.

The actors and cast were all pretty great. I am honestly not a huge fan of largely comedic comic book and superhero films, but this was exceptionally enjoyable. It was fun, funny and still had appropriate drama. The stakes were perfect for the character, they picked the right supporting cast from the rest of the marvel universe in Tony Stark and Happy, and the Villain was one of the most realistic and relocatable to date. (Until Kilmonger came calling).

The story telling was great as well. The directors have a great sense of presentation, timing and drama.

I read somewhere people had issues with stuff like he did not use spider sense or something ridiculous like that. The film is really good and one of marvels best.

I loved this movie which is true for most of the Marvel movies. I think my favorite parts were where spiderman didn't have all the gadgets and how having extra options most of the time in the movie seemed to hinder his abilities. For spiderman he is well adept at using his wit and basic abilities to overcome most of his foes.My least favorite parts of the movie were the fact that spiderman seemed more like iron-man with the amounts of abilities in his new suit.Does it seem fitting to the character, not necessarily, but this was acceptable to me because Spiderman has used suits made by Iron-Man before and those also had the same types of extra powers. I just really enjoy the heart of the character and that showed quite well here as he has to fight between being Peter Parker and Spiderman. Well as Iron-Man is both Tony Stark and Iron-Man and doesn't care that everybody knows.

I’m looking into adopting Tom Holland - he’s adorable :) He plays a great Peter Parker, and due to his training (I’m guessing gymnastics and perhaps ballet) can handle a lot of the physical stuff needed to make a convincing Spider-Man. And then there’s Michael Keaton...I mean, come on, it’s Michael Keaton! He’s amazing as always. Over all a great addition to the Marvel Universe.
